Arsenal can save their season by beating Manchester City in the League Cup final, but Pep Guardiola has a good record at Wembley.
The last time Arsenal won the League Cup title in 1993, at that time they were still commandeered by George Graham by beating Sheffield United at Wembley, 2-1.
The Gunners overcome obstacles from teams like Doncaster Rovers, Norwich City, West Ham United and city rivals Chelsea to seal the spot in the top half of the season.
Of course, the victory over Manchester City will at least cover the dark season that was underway Arsenal in the period 2017/18.
Not excessive, given the season facing Arsenal is now far from expectations. Instead of competing for English Premiership champions, now North London clubs have struggled to catch up with the big four,where they currently occupy the sixth rank. In the FA Cup, Arsenal have been eliminated and in the Europa League,they had enough trouble passing through the team of semenjana Osterfund, who earned victory in the second leg.
For Wenger, beating City at the top party level will change the views of fans against Arsenal.
"Manchester City have a lot of players that you would want to stop them, but better focus on the team itself rather than individual aspects," Wenger told journalists.
"It's true, I'm always used to facing this competition with young players, for us this is an opportunity.We will play all our regular players.You are headed for Wembley and you are determined to become champions, you definitely want the fans home happily. "
While in the stronghold of The Citizens, this match became a golden momentum for manager Pep Guardiola to put his first glory in England. The Spaniard has not once won a trophy with City after successfully embracing 21 titles while handling Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
Even so, Pep explained, he did not save the desire to become champion in his personal name. For him, the club should be above everything else.
"I'm happy [to be the champion], but not me, for this club, we're here to try to win it," Guardiola said.
"The first step is to reach the final.We've made it happen and now we will try to win it Everyone knows,in England is very demanding. In the whole world they play three competitions, but here four! we will try to win every match. We deserve to be in the final and try to win it. "
Guardiola himself has a fun memory at Wembley. In the 1992 season, he became an integral part of the Barcelona squad that won the European Cup [now the Champions League] for the first time.
As a manager, Guardiola never feel the sweetness of Wembley stage when Barca topple Manchester United in the final of the Champions League 2011.
Welcoming this match, Arsenal will again be reinforced Aaron Ramsey is recovering from a thigh injury, but Mesut Ozil is doubtful involved because of a fever.
The most expensive recruits of the London-Pierre Pierre Emerick Aubame can be available in this party even though they are not eligible to appear in the Europa League,while Alexandre Lacazette could not be lowered and Henrikh Mkhitaryan was wedged cup-tied.
There is also in the stronghold City, they get fresh winds along with the potential magnitude of Gabriel Jesus melakoni first appearance in 2018 after plagued by knee injury last December.
Raheem Sterling is doubtful down with a muscle injury, while Fabian Delph is suspended for the red card he earned in last weekend's game
Claudio Bravo's second team keeper, who is always played in every round, will be re-installed to serve this match.
